Netizen reported
There are two blind roads on the sidewalk, both of which are occupied.
Netizen "Yang" is a male who lives in the urban area. "The site is located on the sidewalk on the east side of the intersection of Hanjiang Road and Cuigang Road." The netizen told the reporter to do it right away. A few days ago, when he passed the intersection, he found that the blind road painted with yellow paint was zoned into the non-motor vehicle parking area. Seeing this situation, he stopped to look closely and found that there was another blind road near the yellow blind road. Except for the unpainted color, the shapes of the two blind roads were basically the same. In addition, the two blind roads are more or less occupied by sundries and vehicles.
"A non-motorized vehicle lane has two blind roads with concave and convex lines. If a blind person passes by here, he can’t choose the route at all." The netizen said that the blind road is related to the safe travel of the blind, and I hope the relevant departments can attach great importance to it and rectify it as soon as possible.

Journalist visit
The double-blind lane phenomenon is true, lasting about 200 meters.
After receiving the report, the reporter immediately rushed to the place pointed out by the netizen to conduct a field visit.
The sidewalks where these two blind roads are located are east-west, and are located in the southeast of the intersection of Cuigang Road and Hanjiang Road. Among them, the blind road on the south side is painted with yellow paint, which looks newer, while the blind road on the north side is not painted with any color, which looks old. Reaching out and touching two blind roads, you can feel the bump. The reporter walked eastward from the intersection of Cuigang Road and Hanjiang Road. On the way, it can be seen that both blind roads are occupied by sundries and non-motor vehicles. According to preliminary estimation, the length of the sidewalk with double-blind lanes is about 200 meters.
"There are two blind roads on a sidewalk, and the blind can’t choose." A passer-by said that blind people rely on the sense of bump in the blind road to determine their direction. There are two blind roads with concave and convex lines, and it will be difficult for the blind to choose when they pass. "Applying yellow paint on the blind road can’t make the blind find it smoothly, mainly for people with good eyesight."
Departmental response
If the maintenance unit fails to cancel the old blind road in time, it will notify.
The reporter visited the surrounding sidewalks one by one and found no double-blind lanes. Why is there a double-blind road on the road section reflected by netizens? The reporter conducted an investigation.
"The blind road on the north side is old, and the blind road on the south side is new." A man doing business nearby told the reporter that he was doing business here all the year round. Previously, this section of sidewalk was rebuilt, and a blind road painted with yellow paint was added during the renovation. As for why the blind road on the north side was not cancelled during the renovation process, the man said that it may have been forgotten.
Subsequently, the reporter contacted the traffic police brigade in the jurisdiction for the first time to explain the situation. The relevant person in charge of the second brigade of the traffic police said that there were two blind roads on the sidewalk at the same time, which did not meet the relevant regulations. At present, they are communicating with relevant departments on the issue of blind roads on the spot. In addition, they will step up efforts to rectify the problem that the blind road in this section is occupied.
According to the introduction of the Municipal Center of the Housing and Construction Bureau of Hanjiang District, in the early stage, some citizens reported that electric vehicles occupied the blind road when parking. In order to facilitate people to park, they decided to rebuild a blind road near the original blind road. Two blind roads appeared at the scene, which was related to the failure of the maintenance unit to cancel the original blind road in time. They will inform the maintenance unit to cancel the original blind road in the shortest time.
The traffic police reminded that blind roads should be kept safe and smooth, and no unit or individual may occupy or damage blind roads and facilities. If citizens encounter similar situations, they can report to the traffic police department.

Electric car parking occupies blind roads.
Recently, the netizen "Autumn Day" reported to the column immediately, saying that near Shita Bridge, an electric car occupied the blind road when parking.
"I went to the neighborhood for something, just passing by the area." Netizen "Autumn Day" told the reporter that the scene was located near the entrance of Wanxianghui on the west side of Shita Bridge. According to the situation, it can be judged that the owners of these electric vehicles mostly spend money in nearby complexes. Or for personal convenience, when parking electric cars, they occupy the blind road without authorization. She hopes that the relevant units can pay attention to this matter and manage the on-site electric vehicle parking.
After receiving the information from netizens, the reporter immediately contacted the traffic police to explain the situation. The traffic police department said that they had sent people to the scene for verification. If the situation is true, they will ask the management to strengthen vehicle management to prevent such things from happening again.
